... yeah... you might wanna back that up unless you are just bluffing.

Geez, people just try and pick fights over the Internet. First off, my post was directed to someone who told me I lack skill to rebut the fact that his assumption was wrong.

You talk as if my post was directed to you. That's like two people on the street arguing and you randomly join their argument saying, come at me bro I'm amazing. No one was talking to you, sounds like someone is desperately trying to show this forum how good he is at video games.

Also for you to imply you are more skilled than me because you play starcraft relatively well (props to whatever 195 gm means, I'm sure it's a solid rank, wouldn't know since I've never played sc) is like being a solid baseball player saying he's more athletic than me who would, in this analogy, be a solid football player. I mean really? Why randomly respond to a post that had nothing to do with you as if it were directed to you?

Hes not a ranked 195 GM in SC2. He was mocking you because he didn't believe your GW2 rank, which is understandable.

Ah, yeah thanks for the explanation, read his post in a different context. Yeah he does have the right to say that then, understandable since the only screenshot I have of are scores from matches. Unfortunately gw2 doesn't save/archive leaderboard ranks, since it's been a while since I played.

Regardless, would really like to hear some more information in regards to the original post!

I'd say Ragnarok online. But don't play on servers that has those advance classes like Rune Knights and Creators. That patch is OP and unbalanced. Play on servers that only offers the rebirth patch--ie Gypsies, Bard, Assassin Cross, etc. That's the most balanced patch I've played and to be good on both PVE and PVP, you rely most of the time on your gears. The skill's damage output is also influenced by gears/weapons as well.

Almost all MMORPGs rely on gears but I haven't tried all of them so I can only suggest the following:

Yeah my apologies, I didn't mean it in a way mocking you. I was (and probably) suspect about your rank though :P

I think many people are missing the context in which you say "gear". For me, building gear is half of the end-game activity (the other half being PvP). When you say, "gear-dependent", that means to me that you spend six months, or even years, building one set of gear; a unique set of gear, that nobody else possesses. Taking a basic item and refining it into something godly. When you spend that much time on such an activity, you fully expect to slaughter casuals (who have only spent two or three months building their gear). That is the advantage of gear. Skill is only part of PvP; dedication to bettering your equipment is the rest. And a good team of course.

Sadly I'm still looking for another game that treats gear with such importance. Building gear keeps me playing.

Most MMORPG relies on gears. Like WoW, and Rift, and SWTOR. Same with ESO, Wildstar and FFXIV. Even WAKFU and Allods and a crap ton more.
If you gotta change gears every level or two for a bit more of Strength or Vitality, then there you go.
